Thanks, also to reiterate what you said a few posts up. The 2020-21 customer spending during the pandemic was an anomaly that gave many affiliates a false set of expectations.

All of a sudden people were out of work or working from home and couldn't travel or go out. Average personal internet usage skyrocketed. This combined with many people all of a sudden having much more discretionary income led to many months where my average earnings doubled and even tripled with hardly any new spenders.

Then in 2022 as the pandemic subsided, my earnings fell month after month down to my usual averages. I watched many affiliates panic during this time thinking something must be wrong with CB because they didn't adequately account for the bump that the pandemic brought.
